the deal.

I mean, I think

To me, imagine Tiger Woods sitting in a room and the analytics and data people come in and show him this is the proper way to play the hole.

I could very easily Tiger being like, well, why don't you just hit a big old sweep draw around this tree and hit it to three feet?

There's a great adage in America of great players don't make good managers, good coaches, because they can't conceptualize how a mortal would hit a shot that is required.

They're just like, well, you just do it.

Larry Bird, Magic Johnson, some of these guys who've tried coaching, a lot of them weren't great as a result of it.

And so I don't know.

I think Tiger, from his perspective, I wouldn't really want to take it in a dare because you're likely to lose.

Just historically, the Americans are not particularly good in Europe.

They've banged their head against the wall over and over trying to do different things.

You're probably only going to do this once, so why not do it in a place where

you're more likely to be favored.

You have the advantage of being able to set up the course a little bit more than, and I know that the rules are changed a little bit where you don't have quite as much advantage to set up, but you do have some advantages and some decisions you can make.

Like, wouldn't he want to do it at, you know, Hazeltine or Olympic or what are the, you know, even in DC, like when he's got a crop of young hungry kids who are ready to sort of like

you know, exert a new era of American dominance and Rory's 44 years old and can't quite be, you know, Tommy's 46 and can't quite be the Ryder cup killers they've been.

I just see that as being a more likely scenario for him.

I, some of the PG, Oh, I'm working so hard every day to get our tour stuff.

Yeah.

I'm sure you are in some zoom meetings and your stuff.
